[QUOTE="shooter226, post: 1490953, member: 2563"] "Jefferson did not believe that African Americans could live in American society as free people together with whites. For a long-term solution, he thought that slaves should be freed after reaching maturity and having repaid their owner's investment; afterward, he thought they should be sent to African colonies in what he considered "repatriation", despite their being American-born. " I was told that this lost a vote in congress by only one vote. I'm not sure if this is true or not, but it makes you think how far we have come. Mark [/QUOTE]
